Why is it called the horn of africa?
Why is the region (includes ethipiia eritrea somalia and djibouti) called the Horn of Africa?
It does not contain the Cape of Good Hope (that’s thousands of miles away in South Africa). It is called the Horn of Africa because a horn is a protrusion from an object, and this area is a protrusion from Africa (It definitely isn’t named after a rhinoceros horn, either.).
